Mexican dishes. We did not care for so many soft tortillas in the mixture. Seemed that was all you could taste.

Added 2 cups of corn and a can of diced tomatoes. Served with rice wrapped in a tortilla instead of mixing that in.

I left the tortillas out because we didnt want them to get soggy. We put them on top more like a garnish.Flavor was great, but seemed lacking as a dish. Next time i will add some

beans or serve over rice. Works well as a soft taco type filling.

Great flavors. Be careful with the hot stuff. I like it spicey so I thought it was fine. My wife on the other hand thought it was a bit hot.

Quick and easy with the adobo peppers giving it a nice spicy bite. Have made it more than a few times.

I made this recipe for a group of friends and everyone loved it!! It disappeared. Loved the spicy taste.

Sounded better than it tasted. If I made it again, I would try it without the chipotle pepper...too hot and lacked the Mexican flavor Iove.
